    Why, it may even have 16 times the detail! I love that it just works too!

    I do find it interesting to watch the hype cycle for this game kick off. It’s gamer memory on display. The game may be good, but I sure as hell won’t go near it at launch. When promoting FO 76 Todd used an interesting method of advertising called “lying”. It would be good to see the community being very skeptical of this.

    It’s also hard to believe that it will have the kind of unrestricted modding that makes Bethesda titles into classics, they have been constantly trying to figure out how to push macro transactions. It’s a tough sell to charge someone $20 for the colour blue on the armour if there’s 6,000 mods that are more creative, and free.

    I do hope I’m very wrong to doubt this game. I would love to mod the hell out of a vast space adventure. I just have no reason going in to trust anything Bethesda says.

    Edit: corrected my autocorrect.
